Synthesis of Hedgehoglike F-TiO(B)/CNT Nanocomposites for Sonophotocatalytic and Photocatalytic Degradation of Malachite Green (MG) under Visible Light: Kinetic Study.

The present study describes the preparation of hedgehoglike F-doped titanium dioxide bronze (F-TiO(B)) and its nanocomposites containing single-walled and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs, MWCNTs) by using combined ball milling-hydrothermal processes. Then, sonophotocatalytic and photocatalytic degradation of malachite green (MG) dye from aqueous solution using prepared materials was performed. The results show that F-TiO(B)/SWCNT displays a good sonophotocatalytic and photocatalytic performance among other products under visible light.
